After being expelled from the sect, I became the villain mentor

In fact, there is only one branch of Jinyutang in Weirui City, and the head of the hall is from a branch of the Ling family. It is impossible for there to be another Jinyutang.

But Ling Cang couldn't believe that his family members would use such a stupid method to cause trouble in Fengxian Hall, and the people they sent were recognized!

He and Yu Nian followed Wang Meng and others to a restaurant.

The two of them used the soul-hiding technique and quietly approached the box, ready to find out what was going on, when they heard undisguised cursing coming from inside.

"You bunch of losers! Are you all here for nothing?! You can't even do such a small thing, and you've brought shame to Jin Yu Tang! Wang Meng, you're also an elder of the Ling family. You followed me, Ling Jing, from Yunzhou City to Weirui City for so many years, and you haven't made any progress at all!"

The identity of the people involved is self-evident.

Ling Cang pushed open the door with a dark face, and the person inside panicked: "Who are you!"

"Uncle, don't you even recognize Ling Cang?"

"So it's the young master who has come to visit. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. I'm sorry for not welcoming you."

Ling Jing, a middle-aged man, smiled at Ling Cang in an extremely flattering manner, almost like a flower blooming, which made Ling Cang feel a chill.

"Uncle, there's no need to be so polite," Ling Cang led Yu Nian in and sat down in the main seat with dignity. "This is my master, Yu Nian, who is also the owner of Fengxian Hall."

Master...the owner of Fengxiantang...

Ling Jing finally figured out why Fengxian Hall sounded so familiar. Wasn’t the sect where the young master had invited people to teach before the Fengxian Academy?

Ling Jing wanted to slap himself twice at that moment. What a stupid brain! How come he couldn’t remember anything before?

If he had known the origin earlier, he would definitely not have sent anyone to cause trouble.

"Young Master, I was not thoughtful enough about this matter. I hope that Young Master and Sect Leader Yu will forgive me..." Cold sweat broke out on Ling Jing's forehead, for fear of offending these two ancestors again.

"It's okay," Yu Nian advised earnestly, "but in future business battles, we must still prioritize fair competition. Vicious competition will starve your competitors to death and exhaust you as well."

Ling Jing quickly nodded and bowed, "Sect Master Yu has a long-term vision. Ling Jing is grateful for your guidance."

"Just because Master doesn't pursue the matter doesn't mean I won't."

Jinyutang has branches all over the mainland and is one of the largest trading companies. It has always adhered to the business philosophy of "a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way", but it did not expect that these branches were secretly using some despicable means.

Ling Cang thought for a moment and said calmly, "Jinyutang will be temporarily managed by my uncle. You will go to Fengxiantang and be the shopkeeper. When we return from the ancient secret realm, if you manage well, Fengxiantang and Jinyutang will be managed by you at the same time. If you don't manage well, or if I find out that you have used some despicable means again, then you can't stay in the Ling family anymore."

"I will follow the young master's instructions," Ling Jing said, his dull mind showing a rare moment of intelligence. "Young master, we are also going to the ancient secret realm. How about we go together and take the Ling family's spiritual boat?"

Ling Cang nodded with satisfaction.

Five days later, the spiritual boat from the main house of the Ling family arrived. Led by Yu Nian and a Nascent Soul cultivator worshipped by the Ling family, the team boarded the Ling family's Lingyun flying boat and headed towards the ancient secret realm.

When Yu Nian and Ling Cang boarded the flying boat, Yu Nian discovered that his other three disciples had also followed them.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yu Nian looked helplessly at Yun Yan who was hugging her thigh, "Why are you here too? This trip is too dangerous. Didn't we tell you to stay in the sect?"

Yun Yan grabbed Yu Nian's trouser leg and shook it vigorously, "No, Master, Yan Yan wants to go too~"

Yu Nian held her pants tightly with one hand, afraid that this little ancestor would pull her pants off on the spot. She gritted her teeth and comforted him, "Be good, be obedient. You are only at the fifth level of Qi training now. I will take you out after you have established your foundation."

But Yunyan still refused to give in.

Yun Yan was so upset that Yu Nian had no choice but to ask Yang Yi for help. With a stiff smile on his face, he said, "Yang Yi, take your little sister back."

Yang Yi was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said seriously, "Master, I want to go too."

Yu Nian: “…” The second disciple was also not behaving well.

On the other side, Ye Tang laughed extremely arrogantly, "Master, I established my foundation a month ago! I am qualified to go!"

In public, Yu Nian was unable to suppress his apprentice by force, so he had to take the three of them on board the Lingyun flying boat.

Upon seeing this, the crowd dispersed with reluctance, and then compared their old and frail master, who could only chant scriptures and hit his palms, with Yu Nian... Jealousy makes people unrecognizable.

Under the watchful eyes of the Ling family's Qi-training disciples and the elders who stayed behind, the Lingyun flying boat slowly rose from the square into the sky, broke through the clouds and headed towards the ancient secret realm, gradually shrinking to the size of a sesame seed and disappearing into the horizon.

The exterior of the Lingyun Flying Boat is dark purple, and the hull, made of some unknown wood, is engraved with auspicious cloud patterns. If you look closely, you can see various formations hidden underneath these patterns. From the outside, it looks about the same size as a medium-sized flying boat that can only accommodate dozens of people, but there is a whole other world inside.

Yu Nian was dazzled by the hotel-style room structure in the cabin. The space inside the cabin was quite large, with layers stacked on top of each other. The stairs spiraled down from the middle of the ship to the bottom.

Hundreds of Ling family disciples were going up and down the stairs and corridors, packing their things and moving into the rooms they would live in.

Yu Nian's room was in a corner at the top of the cabin. After she opened the door, she looked at the room where she was going to live.

The room was extremely simple and clean, with two large beds made of dark purple wood, covered with dark purple quilts embroidered with flowing cloud patterns. The surrounding walls were made of purple wooden boards nailed together, with deep and shallow wood ring textures on the walls.

In addition to the two simple beds, the only extra thing in the room was a rectangular wooden table about half a square meter sandwiched between the two single beds, on which was placed a set of purple clay tea sets.

Yu Nian turned around and took a quick look around the room before heading to the deck.

Above the cloud tops, a gentle breeze blew through the white clouds floating in the blue sky. Yu Nian stood on the bow deck, her clothes fluttering in the air. She gently stroked the hair that blew on her face, and looked down from the railing at the lush earth that was as dreamy as if immersed in clear water and quickly flowing away behind her.

Yu Nian asked Shen Ti, the Nascent Soul cultivator beside him, "Where have you been?"

"This Lingyun flying boat can travel tens of thousands of miles a day. It should be able to cross the border of Yaoguang Sect tonight, and it is probably almost reaching Qiongyu City at this time." Shen Ti took out a small fan from somewhere, shook it lightly and replied with a faint smile.

Yu Nian's mouth corners twitched slightly. The wind on the deck of the spirit boat was already quite strong, and he was still waving a fan... What was he pretending to be?

"It's getting late." Yu Nian looked up at the setting sun and continued, "Fellow Daoist Shen, I'll go back and rest first."

You need to conserve your energy and spirit so that you can fight against those monks after you arrive in Nanyang.
